Categories

Cleanliness
1
Mixed reports: several guests praised very clean rooms and attentive housekeeping, but issues reported with pool condition (green/yellow), smell of bleach in rooms, insects from ceiling and shower darkness affected perceived cleanliness.
Service
1
Strong positive sentiment overall: many mentions of amazing, friendly and attentive staff and owners who helped guests; isolated negative incident with one manager on arrival noted but other staff praised as professional and caring.
Location
1
Consistently positive: beachfront, excellent location within walking distance to nightlife, 'a pie de playa', great views from rooms — repeatedly highlighted as a major pro.
Room Quality
1
Mixed to negative: some rooms spacious with great views, but several guests reported missing advertised amenities (no bathtub, fan, desk), hard beds, air-conditioning problems and dated bathrooms; one review mentioned insects falling from the ceiling.
Amenities
1
Mixed: positives include pool, playground, beach towels and mosquito nets; negatives include pool maintenance problems (discoloration, product staining swimwear), restaurant closures/not communicated and some advertised amenities missing.
Value for Money
1
Mixed impressions: some guests felt room/sea-view justified extra payment, while others complained about unexpected charges/compensation handling and service lapses; overall neutral.
Food and Beverage
1
Mixed: several guests enjoyed the breakfast and meals, but many complaints about very slow breakfast service (long waits, forgotten breakfasts), limited/poor options in some stays and occasional poor quality.
Overall Experience
1
Overall mixed: many guests enjoyed the setting, staff and vistas and would return, but recurring operational issues (slow/poor breakfast service, pool condition staining swimwear, missing room amenities, AC/electricity problems and an unpleasant manager incident) meaningfully detracted from stays.

Pros:

En bord de plage, bel hôtel.

Cons:

Service du restaurant … On a commandé des entrées et une personne n’a eu son entrée que 20min après les autres, en même temps que son repas principal.
L’attende des plats au restaurant est assez longue.

Séjour agréable dans l'ensembe mais déçue pour un quatre étoiles.
Pros:

L'hôtel est bien situé en bord de mer. Piscine agréable et bonne nourriture.

Cons:

Hôtel agréable dans l’ensemble, mais quelques points nous ont déçus pour un quatre étoiles. Il n’y a pas de téléphone dans la chambre pour contacter la réception, pas de télévision, très peu de rangements et pas de salle de sport.
Comme l’hôtel est directement sur le sable, on en ramène forcément dans la chambre. Avec les pieds mouillés, le sable colle vite et ce n’est vraiment pas très agréable au quotidien. Je conseille donc de prévoir des pantoufles.
Autre point à savoir : avec la formule « dîner compris », vous avez le plat principal avec soit une entrée, soit un dessert, mais pas les deux. Seule l’eau est incluse, les autres boissons sont en supplément.
Le séjour reste plaisant, mais certains services et équipements pourraient être améliorés pour correspondre davantage au standing annoncé.

Un paraíso con vistas al océano Índico....
Pros:

La ubicación frente al mar, la comida y el coctel de bienvenida

Cons:

La entrada estaba en obras y la primera impresión no fue positiva.
Lo que menos me gustó fue ver una rata al finalizar una cena.
